I've said it before and I'll say it again. All the 5-star games here have their strengths, but the writing in this is just unmatched. If this had DAZ stoper-quality renders it would fucking print money, but the writing even manages to make HoneySelect hot as shit.
It's in the absolute top tier with those models too though and somehow far exceeds the engine itself in quality.

I think I can wait until official launch day; I just finished Hana's first story.

Good GOD is she seriously growing on me! :D

Just a quick question; I've been working off of the PDF walkthrough. Is that preferable to the mod, or not? I've been resisting using walkthrough mods because I'm concerned they might sometimes clash with the game itself.

Yeah, I should probably do that. I'm pretty bad about seeing if there's any updates to the SDK.
Keep in mind though, if you do decide to update to the newest version, you will probably get some moaning from some people.
The newest version does not like 15 year old potato pcs.
If you don't actually NEED any of the new features you might actually want to hold off, or at least read up on the caveats before pulling the trigger.
Personally, I can work around the bug in the old version, so it's not a deal breaker and I haven't really heard anyone else complaining. (Guess nobody else plays directly off a NAS)

TD1900 Oh, and while I have you here, there is a bug in the gallery code.

In extras.py, line 128 & 129

Python:
        [persistent.veroW2GymSceneGallery, "veroW2Gym", "w2VeronicaGymPhotoshoot", {"mcf":persistent.galleryMcf, "mcl":persistent.galleryMcl, "kat_polite":True, "Veronica_Affection":99, "minaGym":True}, "Progress through the story."],
        [persistent.veroW2ScratchGallery, "veroW2Scratch", "w2VeronicaPhotoshootExtended", {"mcf":persistent.galleryMcf, "mcl":persistent.galleryMcl, "Veronica_Affection":99, "w2VeronicaSquirm":True}, "Have Veronica propose a deal."],
It's trying to jump to
w2VeronicaGymPhotoshoot
and
w2VeronicaPhotoshootExtended

but the labels in the script are actually lowercase photoshoot
w2VeronicaGymphotoshoot
and
w2VeronicaphotoshootExtended

Just wanted to add, I'm actually quite happy to see a DSLR with a camera grip extension in the photoshoot scene. I don't know if that was deliberate or not, but I previously spent many years playing around with those things as a hobby, so it's nice to see that sort of attention to detail.

Saying that, it could also have just been a stock piece in the scene creation tablet, and might've been the only one available, so I could be blowing smoke up somebody's butt... :ROFLMAO:

...that ending...you motherfucker...with BOTH of them? Or maybe I should say with NEITHER of them? Dammit...

Way to blue-ball the shit out of us. :(

On a more serious note, excellent as always, and I'm glad it's "back" / here.

The mod is no longer being worked on by Oscar. Last update someone else updated it, but I have no contact with him about that. The PDF walkthrough is your most reliable bet.

The gallery hands out errors on two of the new veronica scenes for me. Overall nice update even if i'd like to have more of Hana. :LUL:
Thanks for the report!

Wait im confused what was the update? Is my game bugged lol was only about 5 mins
I'm gonna need a more info.

Are you not on the Hana, Rosalind, AND Veronica route? Even then, the update should last you longer than five minutes since the park and gym photo shoots are mandatory.

Are you using an out to date mod that didn't remove the click-to-continue screen at the end of the Week2 script?

TD1900 Oh, and while I have you here, there is a bug in the gallery code.
Yep! Just corrected it! Thank you.
Idiotic snafu when I carelessly did a replace all when fixing a typo.

Question; is there a necessary feature to have Veronica 'pent up?' I'm going through that section now, and the walkthrough makes mention of it. Just, I've already been trying to increase her horniness so I'm already out of the scale...
Don't worry about it, it won't be anything major if you didn't get it.

I played the new update, since I have a rather full week next week, otherwise I would have waited for the public release.

Absolutely great update, it simply is a must play game!
As I and many others wrote before, the artwork is just super, getting out everything HS/AiS is capable of. You see what is possible with Studio Neo, if you know what you do. And Gil obviously knows it! Top work!
And the writing is top notch as well, even I as a non-native English speaker can see that. Very good characters with variations and some surprises, as I mentioned before. Following different paths really feels different and there are hints to some events built in.

Quite a number of shout-outs in the game too. In the current update, Rosalind, Veronika and Hana are in the focus. The formers, while not in my sights, definitely grow on you, if you choose "right" in their arcs.
Hana (If you chose her path) is simply great! Some of her arc
You don't have permission to view the spoiler content. Log in or register now.
was in discussion by several users here, like e.g. sunaboz and little old me, so this is not such a big surprise for us, but it might be for those who were not on the Hana path.
Mina is not much in this update, for known reasons, but her last two sentences are a fraking great cliffhanger! Arrggghh, now waiting for the next update (and replaying other paths)!:)

I think I found a wrting error. When the MC looks at the sleeping Hana directly in the new update, she wakes and says"What are looking at?Are you watching me sleep, weirdo?" If I didn´t run into some slang use, I as a non-native speaker do not know about, there is a "you" missing for "What are you looking at".

I think you do not need to haste to update Ren´py to the newer version. While my Computer can stomach the new version, many older "compis" have problems with the new Ren´py and from what I have read in several threads, this new version seems to have quite some bugs. So as long as you do not need some features from this new Ren´py version, staying with the old one is no problem.

Wish you well and that Pale Carnations gets known a lot more in the future! I will definitely continue to spread word (as surely will others)! You and Gil deliver top notch work and a really great eroge, thumbs up!

Found another spell error, from Edwin, in the club:

(She's not here... ah! The scecurity room.)

Also, will the updated PDF walkthrough drop at the same time as the update?

The updated PDF walkthrough is already out, should be linked on page 1.

Great game, but where's the changelog?
I'm wondering if I should continue here, depending on how long the update is, or wait for chapter 4.
Chummer, the update has about 1,700 renders and nearly 100 animations, it is not just five minutes of play as some other games here on F95! Hope this helps.

Sorry, found another tensing issue:

"The dull mechanical drool of the pulleys was a shockingly sweet sound and Harped {i]shined[/i] beautifully underneath the harsh spotlight." - Unless my morning brain is playing tricks on me, that should be 'shone'

The updated PDF walkthrough is already out, should be linked on page 1.
Thank you! At first, thought it was the wrong link, since it was from May last year, then I saw the edit point. :D

My Ch3Up1 Saves Break when I try to Load them on Ch3Up2, when I Click Ignore it resets the Game to the beginning.

A few more possible errors:

"I purged any and all concern from my head for either of our physical comforts, gripping the older woman's wrist as hard as I could - hard enough to bleach her hands white..." this is minor, but should be 'wrists' here.

Kathleen "Don't worry, you'll come around on it. You really shined on stage..." pretty sure this should be 'shone'


Ok, I'm actually up-to-date with the currently publicly released build! Frick, I'm tempted to go for the leak. LOVE Hana, and looks like she'll have ample opportunity to star in the new update!

Seems to me that "shined" is totally acceptable
